Not mentioning my other hats  that I have and do wear. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="color: #274e13;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="color: #274e13;"&gt;Well, I Will be added from time to time my many hats ( that is the blogs  title – Wears Many Hats ).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="color: #274e13;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="color: #274e13;"&gt;So here is one hat that I have worn- A Renal-/Dietitian/Diabetes/  Heart-problems, ( whew) now that is a sentence and a half.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="color: #274e13;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="color: #274e13;"&gt;I became my fathers mainstay for all of his meals and diet. He had to have a  well balance diet-So, I will help anyone out there with diet needs, and what to  watch for-&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="color: #274e13;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="color: #274e13;"&gt;Regarding Renal failure-etc, and how to help with Great Meals that they can  enjoy- and Delicious. So just bare with me. I will help by posting a meal a week  with all the &lt;a class="zem_slink" href="http://productnutrition.thecoca-colacompany.com/nutrition-labels" rel="cocacola" title="Nutrition labeling"&gt;nutrition FACTS&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: large;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #274e13;"&gt;Artichoke Dip  &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; By dietitian Arlene from California&lt;/span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="color: #6aa84f;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Portions:&lt;/strong&gt; 10 &lt;strong&gt;Serving size:&lt;/strong&gt; 2 tablespoons      &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;h6&gt;&lt;span style="color: #6aa84f;"&gt;Ingredients&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h6&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;span style="color: #6aa84f;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="color: #6aa84f;"&gt;1 cup frozen artichoke hearts                                             &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="color: #6aa84f;"&gt;1/4 cup mayonnaise &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="color: #6aa84f;"&gt;1/4 cup sour cream &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="color: #6aa84f;"&gt;2 tablespoons cream cheese &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="color: #6aa84f;"&gt;1 large garlic clove, crushed &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="color: #6aa84f;"&gt;2 teaspoons hot sauce &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="color: #6aa84f;"&gt;1 tablespoon parmesan cheese&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;h6&gt;&lt;span style="color: #6aa84f;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/h6&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;span style="color: #274e13;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="color: #6aa84f;"&gt;1/2 vegetable, medium potassium  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="color: #6aa84f;"&gt;2 fat&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;h6&gt;&lt;span style="color: #6aa84f;"&gt;Helpful hints&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h6&gt;&lt;span style="color: #274e13;"&gt;&lt;h6&gt;&lt;span style="color: #6aa84f;"&gt;Preparation&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h6&gt;&lt;h6&gt;&lt;ol&gt;&lt;span style="color: #6aa84f;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="color: #6aa84f;"&gt;Preheat oven to 375º F. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="color: #6aa84f;"&gt;Place artichoke hearts in a saucepan, cover with water and bring to a boil.  Reduce heat to medium and cook for 6 minutes. Drain and rinse with cold water to  cool. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="color: #6aa84f;"&gt;Chop artichoke hearts. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="color: #6aa84f;"&gt;In a medium bowl combine mayonnaise, sour cream, cream cheese, hot sauce and  garlic. Transfer mixture to a baking dish. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="color: #6aa84f;"&gt;Top with parmesan cheese. Place in oven and bake for 30 minutes or until  bubbly on top.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;&lt;/h6&gt;&lt;h6&gt;&lt;span style="color: #6aa84f;"&gt;Renal and renal diabetic food choices&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h6&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;span style="color: #274e13;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="color: #6aa84f;"&gt;If canned or jarred artichokes in water are used instead of frozen, look for  the lowest sodium brand. Rinse well to help reduce sodium.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="color: #6aa84f;"&gt;Try this dip on toasted slices of baguette, crisp celery or with your  favorite low-sodium crackers.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="color: #6aa84f;"&gt;Tabasco© sauce is one of the lowest sodium hot pepper sauces&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;span style="color: #6aa84f;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;h6&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: #6aa84f;"&gt;Nutrients per serving&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom-color: rgb(153, 153, 153); border-bottom-style: solid; border-bottom-width: 3px; padding: 4px 0px 0px 10px;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h6&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;div style="border-bottom-color: rgb(153, 153, 153); border-bottom-style: solid; border-bottom-width: 3px; padding: 4px 0px 0px 10px;"&gt;&lt;h4&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: #6aa84f;"&gt;Nutrients per serving&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h4&gt;&lt;h6&gt;&lt;span style="color: #6aa84f;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h6&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;h6&gt;&lt;span class-?nutrition?=""&gt;&lt;span style="color: #6aa84f;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="color: #6aa84f;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Calories&lt;/strong&gt;  119 &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Thank you for following me on my writing. &lt;br /&gt;
We'll it's&amp;nbsp; been 2 months I Still, haven't heard anything from the publisher ( sigh). In their disclosure, it states, it could take up to 6 Months! to hear back from them... Okay, still wanted to hear anything by now,( you know what I mean). I'm not one&amp;nbsp;whom likes to wait.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;I do have a lot of patience with LIFE. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
SPEAKING OF LIFE,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It can be&amp;nbsp;so WONDERFUL, Like some of you that have followed me know that recently I, loss my Dearly Beloved ( Sigh), I'm learning to walk, then I will&amp;nbsp;LEARN to Fly- It is all been&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;( I just can't describe it). HARD AS HELL... &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Now there I said it.&amp;nbsp; I know maybe this isn't a&amp;nbsp; real healthy way of dealing with this, but I pretend that it is all a Dream, a bad dream and, I am just putting one foot in front of the other. I mean it I watch my foot steps. I often talk to my beloved. I constantly ask how&amp;nbsp;ya doing. I always tell him,&amp;nbsp;miss ya like Hell, and you know you didn't have to leave US.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I was&amp;nbsp;on a&amp;nbsp;Social Network today&lt;span style="background-color: yellow;"&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: white;"&gt;,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: white;"&gt; I&amp;nbsp; went to a friends site that I haven't seen in a long time.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: white;"&gt;I saw so many pictures of my Husbands friends that he grew up with. It touched my heart dearly.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So it got me thinking... ( Scary thought), I have My late brothers &lt;u&gt;LOVE LETTERS&lt;/u&gt; from his girl friend and himself. Everyday they wrote a letter to each other, The stamps were only 5 cents, wow can you even amagine, Plus check this out. Remember the LOVE IS cartoon from The Los Angeles Times. Well, my bro's girl friend cut it out everyday and put it in the letter's. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
He had them on his wall for the longest time. I really need to find them. The early 70's was the time, the music was simple, but had such meaning. If anyone&amp;nbsp;out there, you know what that was all about. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So looking forward to hearing from you&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

With faith, I expect my good and claim it now.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="ecxverse" style="color: black; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: italic; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 40px;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #38761d;"&gt;Is not my house like this with God? …Will he not cause to prosper all my help and my desire?--2 Samuel 23:5&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;

She has worked on my  children’s story NOW, for the &lt;em&gt; INFAMOUS&lt;/em&gt;  “QUERY" LETTER” &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Yikes, no, not really; as you read below she is an kindred spirit. So blessed  she came into my life- Like I have stated the lord works in mysterious  ways and  this is differently one of them. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cindy  &lt;br /&gt;
I will watch for it to come "over the wire" from 2nd Draft. :-) &lt;br /&gt;
I am so sorry to hear about your husband--I lost mine several years ago to  cancer so I totally understand where you are coming from.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;I too find inspiration  by helping others in the same situation he was in. I have a little papillon who  is a wonderful therapy dog. We make weekly visits to the local cancer treatment  facility and just spend time with those going through chemo.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;He is especially  good interacting with children and we also participate in a program especially  for kids with cancer. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think you have an admirable dream to share with young readers. &lt;br /&gt;
I look forward to working with you again.&lt;br /&gt;

So many &lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;places, they all can’t fit on my blog page. So..I have placed them on my &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a class="zem_slink" href="http://google.com/" rel="homepage" title="Google"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #38761d;"&gt;Dashboard&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color: #38761d;"&gt;.

Or should I say, what I have come to believe. For instance, Neighbors, what makes a &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a class="zem_slink" href="http://www.amazon.com/Neighbor-Lisa-Gardner/dp/0553807234%3FSubscriptionId%3D0G81C5DAZ03ZR9WH9X82%26tag%3Dzemanta-20%26linkCode%3Dxm2%26camp%3D2025%26creative%3D165953%26creativeASIN%3D0553807234" rel="amazon" title="The Neighbor"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #38761d;"&gt;Neighbor&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color: #38761d;"&gt;... funny word isn't it? I think so. Like when we come home from work and meet them in the driveway, or let’s say lord forbid... I NEED A CUP OF SUGAR- OR EGG- CUP OF MILK.etc. Remember back in the day we used to do such things. &lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;They we're our mini mart, and we were theirs. &lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;Now, we just jump in our cars and off we go.

Let’s think about this for a minute. Okay, life has changed, hmmm. Yes it has. We are all in such a hurry, go here go there. Man, this made me think about our today again. A pick up game in the street, Not to mention- &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dodgeball" rel="wikipedia" title="Dodgeball"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #38761d;"&gt;Dodge ball&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color: #38761d;"&gt;- and drum roll please…… my favorite thing of all times, DING DONG DITCH. So much fun, Okay back to my sweet neighbor.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;span style="color: #38761d;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="color: #38761d;"&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

( am I right?). Well last week MY neighbor so to speak, caught me out in the street as I was leaving in my car, &lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;flagged me down with a hand wave, I wanted to thank him any way for trimming my hedges, I’ve told him he could use our lawnmower any time he need. He stuck his arm and head in, and said, “I haven't seen you in a while”. He knows about my beloved husband and how busy we all have become. He &lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;spoke with my husband often. I had no idea he had become so close to him. Our beloved was so worried about his family that he had confided in him and another close friend. I was so &lt;i&gt;Glad &lt;/i&gt;that he could open up with them. Just to release some anxieties, so to speak. So that today I can hear as his voice continues, in someone else. Funny how things are. So beautiful.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="color: #38761d;"&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

I pointed to his shirt and said Hello, I didn’t know?. And who do you know that has been touched my this. I must have had a weird look on my face. Because he touched my hand and said “Brad was my neighbor” with this a huge sigh. I almost started to cry. It touched my heart so very much. Wow, and this is our neighbor of today.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;span style="color: #38761d;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="color: #38761d;"&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

This is LLS big &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fundraiser" rel="wikipedia" title="Fundraiser"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #38761d;"&gt;fund raiser&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color: #38761d;"&gt; of the year, they have many. Which I’m told they are one of the biggest cancer research &lt;span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;fund raiser’s. However, he asked me if we went last month. I said “of course wouldn’t have missed it”. He stated he went and there are many other fund raisers he has joined in the fight with cancer since his neighbor&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 12pt; mso-fareast-font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;span style="color: #38761d;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="color: #38761d;"&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

I was so excited. I mention to him, how, when, and the time is this all going to take place. He proceeds with all the details, so, “I asked him if it would be alright to launch my children’s Book there and have a huge fund raiser for LLS. This cuts things close; I hope I can me such a deadline. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin: 0in 0in 0pt;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

It has a ripple effect- I am so glad him and his family haved moved next door- Shhh ( I think we are going to become good and maybe possibly GREAT Friends).

A lot of Changes in my life recently, thank everyone for following and sending emails.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finding balance and a new life...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Well... I had my second editing done. On my &lt;a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Children%27s_literature" rel="wikipedia" title="Children's literature"&gt;children's book&lt;/a&gt;, Nail biting and nerve racking waiting for the response. The wait is over, she (Terri), sent it via email."I' think my book is great. However, wonderful &lt;a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Word" rel="wikipedia" title="Word"&gt;words&lt;/a&gt; of advice. Quoting Terri,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
"You have wonderful concepts here, a first book to introduce young children to the benevolence of God. Smiling&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A most unique idea that would make a wonderful &lt;a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Picture_book" rel="wikipedia" title="Picture book"&gt;picture book&lt;/a&gt;". Okay that's the good part, here is the edit. What?," you didn't think that I was going to keep this from you"?. ( just keeping it real ).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Always nice to get unbiased  opinion, don't you think. As Terri edited, it&amp;nbsp;was a little vague, &amp;nbsp;did i here this somewhere else? hum I think so- better hede the warning. I&amp;nbsp;NEED TO GO BIG OR GO HOME... &amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
CHILDREN WANT ADVENTURE, EXCITMENT, loud-words&amp;nbsp;  So,&amp;nbsp; I have some writing to do. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This has been such an wonderful adventure. I kept thinking&amp;nbsp; the illustrations&amp;nbsp;can&amp;nbsp; due a lot of the story, not to mention having a great concept ( Terri ), It needs WORDS, and more WORDS. Great, I can&amp;nbsp;deliver. &lt;br /&gt;

The indwelling&lt;span style="color: #93c47d;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divine_presence" rel="wikipedia" style="color: #6aa84f;" title="Divine presence"&gt;presence of God&lt;/a&gt; is the very essence of the silence. As I meditate, I sense God's presence as stillness. My mind is quiet.&lt;br /&gt;
If I have been experiencing unsettledness in my life, I devote time today to silent prayer. In the silence, I invite compassion, wisdom and grace into my heart and mind. I step fully into the kingdom of God within me. Centered in the power of God, I gather strength and clarity. &lt;br /&gt;
By choosing to go within rather than react, I experience the peace of God.

&lt;div class="ecxbodycopy" style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 15px;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #6aa84f;"&gt;Children taking their first steps teach us an important lesson: With  confidence, drive and a strong desire to walk, these little ones push past their  comfort zone and move forward. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="color: #6aa84f;"&gt;I know that as a child of God, I can tap into my own adventurous nature and  determination to do whatever is before me this day. I might be taking my first  steps in physical or emotional recovery. I might be beginning a new relationship  or renewing a previous one. I can do anything I set my heart on.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="color: #6aa84f;"&gt;As I search my soul, I know that God provides me with whatever is needed to  step forward. I confidently take on any challenge or adventure that leads me to  claim the abundant life I was created to live. So very grateful to ones family and friends... They have inspired me in so many ways. Being still and listening to Gods voice. Peace-Calm and stay in Harmony. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

With age,  education and experience, I gained wisdom. Some of the things I know now I  couldn't possibly have understood as a child. Some of my wisdom, however, has  been gained not by experience, but by tapping into a greater source of wisdom  within me, the wisdom of God. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #274e13;"&gt;Just as plants know how and when to push through the soil toward the sun,  just as birds know to migrate hundreds of miles to their nesting grounds, I,  too, have an inner wisdom. Closing my eyes to the distractions of the outer  world, I find direction when I feel lost, inspiration when I am ready to hear,  and a closeness to God as I open my heart. The wisdom of God lives within  me.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="ecxverse" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: italic; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 40px;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #274e13;"&gt;For the Lord gives wisdom.--Proverbs 2:6&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4905722331746874853-3619219380802296793?l=cindywearsmanyhats.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

When I experience a hurtful exchange with another person, I allow forgiveness to release me from the pain. Forgiving does not condone unacceptable behavior; it gives me permission to break free from the hold people or situations may have on me.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;With compassion, I forgive myself for doing something I regret or for neglecting to do something I wish I had done. Through self-forgiveness, my capacity to forgive others increases. Judgment is released. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;As I forgive, I gratefully accept the peace of Christ within and see the goodness of God expressing.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Do not judge, and you will not be judged; do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven.--Luke 6:37&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4905722331746874853-3548072457763803221?l=cindywearsmanyhats.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&amp;nbsp;Dear, Agent/Publisher. This is serious business. I really didn't&amp;nbsp;realize the art to this. To capture an Agent/ Publishers attention at a glance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Can you imagine, hundreds upon thousands of letters they get in a single day? To read.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp; Dear Jane,&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;Blah, Blah, Blah... and&amp;nbsp;guess&amp;nbsp;what?, &amp;nbsp;my mine was one of them.&amp;nbsp;Shriek, ( I thought ),&amp;nbsp;gosh&amp;nbsp;does mine read like THAT!. Well, it most certainly did. So!, back again I write.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;Dear Jane...&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;Well this time, I hope, that I have done my home work and research on HOW TO WRITE A QUERY LETTER, wow, now that is saying something. &amp;nbsp;Yes it's an Art form, you bet you're bottom dollar it is just that, an Art. I've&amp;nbsp;received&amp;nbsp;so much information from The Query Shark. On how to write a &amp;nbsp;Query letter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I do hope it gets past the desk, and they like what am writing about. See, I have big hopes, just like millions of &amp;nbsp;Authors do, Getting Published. There is so many pros and cons on Publishing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I've learned Not, and I mean not to take it Personal. About being declined. I have to keep at this. Glad I have my blog so that other writers can comment. So please fill free to post- say yeah or nay&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
. A great friend of mine is getting his book published, he went with self publishing, went great lengths with re-writes. He liked the whole Idea of that ( self publishing ), Once again, Pros and Cons.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I would love to see my book get published, I&amp;nbsp;believe&amp;nbsp;it will.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4905722331746874853-4447586933262364263?l=cindywearsmanyhats.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

I give thanks for the womb that gave me life and the love that supported my growth. My eyes are opened to see anew all the love I have received. Strong and gentle, liberating and supportive, love has nurtured my growth. Whether the mother who gave me these gifts of love is with me now or not, I send a blessing of loving gratitude to her today.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Your mother was like a vine in a vineyard ..., fruitful and full of branches. --Ezekiel 19:10&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4905722331746874853-3648133762357449739?l=cindywearsmanyhats.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

I am not alone.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;I am not alone. I hold this thought in mind and feel comforted. The evidence of love begins to show. A ray of sunshine strikes a crystal and the rainbow of colors dances on my wall. A tiny bird comes near to sing its song just for me. In books and music, through the gentle touch and kindness of others, God speaks to me of love. What reassurance comes when I take time to listen for and experience that still small voice of God.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;In the quiet place within my heart, I feel God's loving presence. No burden is mine to carry alone. With each breath I draw upon the infinite strength and peace of the Divine. I gently release any sorrow or worry weighing me down. Enfolded in the embrace of sweet Spirit I know that I am not alone. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Yet I am not alone because the Father is with me.--John 16:32&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4905722331746874853-5621026521499899228?l=cindywearsmanyhats.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Moving forward in&amp;nbsp;ones life is one of strength and courage, we find this when we go through really tuff times. We take a long hard look around to see what "WE" are made of. When I said "WE" I mean a village of people that are here standing with you, through the rain and sunshine- One's true family and&amp;nbsp;friends.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;That's how you move forward in life. I really didn't know what all that really meant when one said "move forward". I am learning- on who is truly around, to help&amp;nbsp;and guild, with loving support- That's what true love is.&amp;nbsp;We have met some great people on this Journey with my husband.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
What is truly important in ones&amp;nbsp;life- My Husband, father, and friend was a very successful man. What I mean in success, is, that's not about things it's about being brave thru all that he &lt;span style="font-family: Calibri;"&gt;Endure &lt;/span&gt;, and saying. " If &lt;a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/God" rel="wikipedia" title="God"&gt;God&lt;/a&gt; wants me here then I am meant to be here".&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I pull on his strenght when I am sad, and ask the &lt;a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lord" rel="wikipedia" title="Lord"&gt;Lord&lt;/a&gt; "WHY" we need him here with us-&lt;br /&gt;
I have, &lt;a class="zem_slink" href="http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/just-friends1994" rel="rottentomatoes" title="Just Friends"&gt;Friends&lt;/a&gt; often say how amazed at his &lt;a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Courage" rel="wikipedia" title="Courage"&gt;Bravery&lt;/a&gt; thru this- They loved his spirit- How the Lord was his &lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Calibri&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 11pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;"&gt;strength- &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Remember friends will come and go in your life- The &lt;a class="zem_slink" href="http://www.amazon.com/Golden-Pocket-Change/dp/B00004L8FR%3FSubscriptionId%3D0G81C5DAZ03ZR9WH9X82%26tag%3Dzemanta-20%26linkCode%3Dxm2%26camp%3D2025%26creative%3D165953%26creativeASIN%3DB00004L8FR" rel="amazon" title="Golden"&gt;Golden&lt;/a&gt; ones will stay everyday and see you thru. I have choose to keep his spirit alive within our lives. I miss him dearly. Our friends have gathered around us, and talk about his true nature- the spirit that grew these last 7 years.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
His kindness, craftsmanship, love and forgiveness that he often expressed. We've had many quite moments in our life- we would speak of Life and keeping it simple, so that the Lord's spirit can come in- and let love in- &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
We still from this day are getting cards sent in the most sincere&amp;nbsp; way, the &lt;span style="font-family: &amp;quot;Calibri&amp;quot;,&amp;quot;sans-serif&amp;quot;; font-size: 11pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;"&gt;precious&lt;/span&gt; words that were spoken about our loved one,&amp;nbsp;fills our hearts with over joy- we just can't express what he truly meant to his friends. He always inspired his friends in the hospital, and to this day remains this families friends,&amp;nbsp;and always will and not to forget all that have stayed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-UgSrk1kCDH0/TbHTxQ6IAmI/AAAAAAAAAL4/Tw0lVVd88CY/s1600/MP900182743.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"&gt;&lt;img border="0" height="213" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-UgSrk1kCDH0/TbHTxQ6IAmI/AAAAAAAAAL4/Tw0lVVd88CY/s320/MP900182743.JPG" width="320" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
God bless all that has stayed by&amp;nbsp;our families side and guilded us on a daily bases. God will hold you dear. To us this is the meaning of Success, True friendship, True Love, and a wonderful spirit that will go on in each and everyone of us- Jesus said to love one another, come to me as a child&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;So we bless this day and always with -Peace- Love-Kindness&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div class="ecxbodycopy" style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 15px;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #93c47d;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: #93c47d;"&gt;Whether I call it intuition or insight, inner knowing emanates from the  spirit of God within me. I know the right action to take and when to take no  action at all as I remain open to Spirit for guidance and illumination. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="color: #93c47d;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: #93c47d;"&gt;Clearing my mind of any uncertainty about what I can do, I open myself to  what &lt;a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divine_presence" rel="wikipedia" title="Divine presence"&gt;God's Presence&lt;/a&gt; can do through me. In quiet times of prayer, I receive  divinely inspired direction. Free of any doubt or fear, I let divine  possibilities flow into my conscious awareness. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="color: #93c47d;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: #93c47d;"&gt;Through prayer and meditation, I become attentive to the still small voice of  intuition, the "inner teaching" of Spirit. I know when to speak and act and when  to be still. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="color: #93c47d;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Grace is  bestowed upon me unconditionally, without my needing to earn it or prove I  deserve it. Like the father rushing to meet his returning prodigal son, God  meets me when I seek the kingdom. Moreover, grace is active in me even when I am  not consciously seeking, for there is no place in mind or heart that is beyond  God's love.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="color: #38761d;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: #38761d;"&gt;Grace is visible in my life when the consequences of a mistake are gentler  than they might have been. Grace is tangible when I feel blessed beyond all  imagining. Love wells up within my heart until I feel the full impact of God's  presence.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="color: #38761d;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: #38761d;"&gt;Thank you, God, for your gift of grace. I know I am always in your loving  care.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="color: #38761d;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div class="ecxaffirmation" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 15px;"&gt;Every stranger is my brother or sister.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;div class="ecxbodycopy" style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 15px;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #38761d;"&gt;Creating a world of harmony happens one person at a time--and it starts with  me. In conscious alignment with Spirit, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="color: #38761d;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="color: #38761d;"&gt;I focus on creating peace and harmony  within myself. Harmony then extends to my peaceful and loving relationships with  my family and community, then spreads to my brothers and sisters around the  world.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="color: #38761d;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="color: #38761d;"&gt;The spirit of &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a class="zem_slink" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/God" rel="wikipedia" title="God"&gt;&lt;span style="color: #38761d;"&gt;God&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color: #38761d;"&gt; is within every person. If ever I feel disconnected from  another, I take steps to re-establish harmony. I reach out to others with love  and respect. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="color: #38761d;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="color: #38761d;"&gt;I remember that we are all connected; there are no strangers;  separation does not exist.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;span style="color: #38761d;"&gt;When we see each other as members of one big family, the world is united in  perfect harmony.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

I may discover mine when I am troubled by a situation and feel called to be part of the solution. The path may not be perfectly clear; I may not know what action to take. Nevertheless, I begin right where I am. I trust my inner wisdom to show me the way. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Rather than worry about making a mistake, I pray and take one small step. I trust that God will place a lamp before my feet, guiding me as I go. &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;As I give of myself in sacred service, everything I need is provided. I joyfully do what is mine to do. My faith grows even deeper as I give from my abundance. As I step out in faith, I am strong, positive and powerful.&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;You see that faith was active along with his works.--James 2:22&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4905722331746874853-2429328841266078380?l=cindywearsmanyhats.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
